A butt mounting hinge capable of movement through at least a 270-degree range of motion. The hinge assembly has two base elements and three connection elements defining a total of five hinge connections. The base elements are butt mounting elements. Each base element provides two pair of hinge connections, while the fifth hinge connection rides in a slidable void provided by an intermediate connection element interconnecting the other two connection elements.

A hinge device for a vehicle, wherein the hinge device includes a first member, which has two spaced brackets, a second member, which is arranged between the brackets. The hinge device further includes a hinge arrangement defining a hinge axis and adapted to connect the second member to the brackets so that the members may turn in relation to each other about the hinge axis. The hinge device is adapted for allowing movement of the hinge axis via movement of the hinge arrangement.

A furniture fitting includes a first fitting portion to be fixed to a furniture carcass, and a second fitting portion to be fixed to a movable furniture part, the two fitting portions being pivotally connected by a hinge axis member. The first fitting portion can be inserted into a recess in the furniture carcass, and/or the second fitting portion can be inserted into a recess in the movable furniture part. The first fitting portion and/or the second fitting portion includes a longitudinal housing having two end sections spaced apart. The hinge axis member is arranged on a first end section of the housing, and the first fitting portion and/or the second fitting portion includes a fastening device having a movably-mounted actuating element formed as a rotatable screw. By actuating the actuating element, at least one fitting portion can be fixed within the recess on both end sections of the housing.

A furniture hinge device capable of implementing wide range loading, comprising a housing and a fixing plate. A linkage assembly is provided between the housing and the fixing plate. A lever assembly and a power assembly are provided on the housing. The power assembly comprises a primary spring and a secondary spring. Positioning ends of the primary spring and the secondary spring are respectively mounted, from bottom to top, at a lower swinging end of the lever assembly. An adjustment assembly is provided on connection ends of the primary spring and the secondary spring. A fixing part of the adjustment assembly is fixedly mounted on a side plate of the housing. Adjustment parts of the adjustment assembly are respectively rotatably connected to the fixing part of the adjustment assembly and are connected to adjustment ends of the primary spring and the secondary spring.

Disclosed herein is a continuous hinge. The continuous hinge comprises a first hinge portion comprising a first plurality of knuckles; and a second hinge portion opposing the first hinge portion and comprising a second plurality of knuckles. The second plurality of knuckles is interdigitated with the first plurality of knuckles and pivotally coupled to the first plurality of knuckles. Each knuckle is a separate piece.

The invention relates to a hinge for a swinging door, the hinge has at least one hinge axis element, a first hinge part and a second hinge part which are connected to one another in a hinge-like manner via the at least one hinge axis element, at least one latching arrangement, which comprises at least one latching means arranged at the second hinge part and comprising a latching body, and at least one latching recess arranged at the hinge axis element, wherein the latching means is configured such that the latching body engages in the latching recess in a latching position, and a clamping means for releasably fixing the hinge axis element to the first hinge part, wherein an angular position of the hinge axis element and the latching recess with respect to the first hinge part can be adjusted. The clamping means comprises at least one pair of clamping jaws for clamping the hinge axis element between these clamping jaws, wherein each of the clamping jaws comprises a clamping surface adapted to the contour of the hinge axis element.

A door hinge assembly includes: a door frame defining a frame opening and a jamb at one side of the frame opening, the jamb including two frame corners protruding into the frame opening and a jamb brace connecting the two frame corners across the frame opening, the jamb brace defining two spaced-apart hinge holes therethrough; a door movable to selectively provide access through the frame opening, and an elastic cord connecting the door to the door frame, the cord extending sequentially through a first of the two hinge passages, through a first of two passage openings at the jamb edge, through a first of the two hinge holes, across the jamb brace, through a second of the two hinge holes, through a second of the two passage openings at the jamb edge, and through the second of the two hinge passages.

An aircraft fuselage end cargo door mechanism including a hinge rotatably coupling an aircraft fuselage end cargo door to a fuselage. The hinge being coupled to both the aircraft fuselage end cargo door and the fuselage so that an entirety of an axis of rotation of the aircraft fuselage end cargo door, defined by the hinge, relative to the fuselage is located forward of an entirety of a major joint line between the aircraft fuselage end cargo door and the fuselage. An uppermost portion of the major joint line comprises a joint line radius where a portion of the joint line radius formed by the aircraft fuselage end cargo door pivots within another portion of the joint line radius formed by the fuselage.

A refrigerator includes at least one hinge assembly configured to hinge a door to a cabinet. The at least one hinge assembly includes a mounting block coupled to, and that extends at least partially along, the door. A hinge bracket is coupled to the cabinet. The hinge bracket is coupled to a top panel of the cabinet and includes an upward extending flange that spans a width of the cabinet and that is coplanar with a front panel of the door. A hinge pin is disposed between the mounting block and the hinge bracket and is coupled thereto such that the entirety of the hinge pin is external to the door and is positioned between the door and the hinge bracket.
